Ten supportive things to say to help those in your life with mental illness
From purplepersuasion
1) “Here’s my number. Call me any time. And I mean any time.”
2) “What can we do to help you regain your equilibrium?”
3) “That must be very difficult.”
4) “I know you’re taking your meds, but they’re not working for you, are they, sweetie?”
5) “What sense do you make of everything that’s been happening to you?”
6) “The times when you’re unwell don’t matter! I’d rather have one of you than ten other people with a clean sickness record.”
7) “Just let me know when you’re ready to come back.”
8) “I’m not going anywhere.”
9) “…as best you can.”
10) “Sorry to hear you’ve been poorly.”
I hope you all use in your lives these as best you can.
And never, ever underestimate the power of sitting with someone, and acknowledging their pain with your presence.
